Updating WZGUILib
cyanophycean314:
Every time I read about the platform.gc function, it's always something bad. What's the actual use of it? Why not just use gc?
Oh and I'm pretty excited and curious about what's going to happen to Lua soon. You guys (adriweb and jimbauwens) are dropping hints everywhere. The SDK is being released in 2012, but what exactly will that do to Lua?
Jim Bauwens:
platform.gc() will go away in the next release, so that's also a reason not to use it ;)
Sadly enough we can't tell more what's to come next release as we are under NDA.
All we can say is that its going to be great :)
cyanophycean314:
If we update to the next release of Lua, will we have to update the OS? I'm still running 3.0.1. :P
Will Ndless still be compatible if we have to update the OS? Even though I love programming Lua, I'm not willing to give up the chance for a GBC emulator, inter alia. :)

No idea. Ndless 3.1 works with 3.1. If the exploit(s?) is still there in the future OS update, there's a good chance that ndless will work too :)
It has not been tested with the alpha build we have (and we won't do it - and we can't, even if we would want to-)
jwalker:
I cant wait for the next os, but i might not upgrade my CX CAS if if ndless comes out
after i fix this i will get rid of all of the other platform.gc's its a good thing there isnt many of them
